2 dumb questions
I had to refresh my windows installation, and I lost Calibre. I reinstalled, but can't remember (or find) 2 things:
1. How do I modify the GUI? I had moved things around, and added and deleted some things. 2. I used gmail as my proxy server, but that is no longer listed as an option on the welcome wizard. How do I figure out how to set it up? Thanks. Now I have to redownload Office. |

If you have good backups then the info in this thread might be helpful as you can often "restore" the configuration in much the same way as moving a configuration to a new machine:

It used to be part of the email wizard, but that was removed when GMail started making itself hard to use with third-party "less secure" applications.
Here is the configuration details in the source code: https://github.com/kovidgoyal/calibr...l.py#L193-L207 So you will need: hostname: smtp.gmail.com port: 587 username: my_email_address@gmail.com password: my_password Then follow the directions here: https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/6010255 And if you ever meet someone who works at Google, feel free to slap them. |

![]() Note: It was merely a suggestion that you can, not a demand that you must. Hey, I wouldn't mind potentially working there myself one day -- regardless, this is still stupid and deserves a slap. Maybe that will receive a bigger reaction than sending feedback to be ignored. |
